The mornin' after the party I lay upon my bed Starin' at the ceilin' And feelin' like I'm dead What a lovely way What a lovely way to start a day The girl last night that I fancied Is still drunk on the floor But in the mornin' light now Don't look so good no more What a lovely way What a lovely way to start a day Can't find my tie Can't find my shoes And there's a hole in the pocket Where my money used to be I've got the mornin' after the party blues I've got to be clearin' up now Before my folks return But my poor head starts achin' Ev'ry time I turn What a lovely way What a lovely way to start a day
